Definitions

• This invention relates to a composition comprising gluten- free cereal flour, to gluten-free food products, such as gluten-free bakery products or gluten-free pasta, and to a method of managing a gluten-related disorder in an individual.
• Gluten is a protein complex found in triticeae tribe of grains, which includes wheat, barley and rye.
• the gluten content in wheat flour provides desirable organoleptic properties, such as texture and taste, to innumerable bakery and other food products.
• Gluten also provides the processing qualities to both the commercial food manufacturer as well as the home baker. In general, it is very difficult to make bread using gluten-free cereal flours such as rice flour and buckwheat flour.
• gluten-free cereal flours such as rice flour and buckwheat flour.
• the carbon dioxide gas generated by fermentation is retained by the gluten so that the gluten network is extended and the dough rises.
• the carbon dioxide gas generated by fermentation is not retained within the dough so that the dough does not efficiently rise.
• Gluten is considered by many to be the "heart and soul" of bakery and other food products.
• gluten has its drawbacks.
• the gluten protein complex upon entering the digestive tract, breaks down into peptide chains like other protein sources, but the resulting gluten-related peptide chain length is longer than for other proteins.
• these longer peptides trigger an immune response commonly referred to as celiac disease.
• Celiac disease is characterized by inflammation, villous atrophy and cryptic hyperplasia in the intestine.
• the mucosa of the proximal small intestine is damaged by an immune response to gluten peptides that are resistant to digestive enzymes. This damage interferes with the body's ability to absorb vital nutrients such as proteins, carbohydrates, fat, vitamins, minerals, and in some cases, even water and bile salts.
• European Patent Application No. EP 1 561 380 discloses a dough composition comprising gluten-free cereal flour, a water-soluble cellulose ether, and a low
• substituted cellulose ether having a molar substitution of 0.05-1.0.
• suitable water-soluble cellulose ethers include alkyl celluloses such as methyl cellulose, and hydroxyalkyl alkyl celluloses such as hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose or hydroxyethyl methyl cellulose.
• Preferred examples of low substituted cellulose ethers include a low substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose having a molar substitution of 0.091 to 0.51 and hydroxyethyl ethyl cellulose.
• European Patent Application No. EP 2 153 724 discloses a dough composition which comprises at least a water-soluble hydroxypropyl methylcellulose having a hydroxypropoxyl molar substitution of from 0.05 to 0.3 and a degree of methoxyl substitution of from 1.4 to 1.9, wherein hydroxypropoxyl groups are classified into substituted hydroxypropoxyl groups having hydroxyl groups of the hydroxypropoxyl groups substituted further with methoxyl groups and unsubstituted hydroxypropoxyl groups having hydroxyl groups of the hydroxypropoxyl groups unsubstituted, and a ratio (A/B) of a molar fraction (A) of the substituted hydroxypropoxyl groups to a molar fraction (B) of the unsubstituted hydroxypropoxyl groups is 0.4 or greater; a gluten-free cereal flour; and water. A soft texture and good swallow feeling is reported.
• dough compositions based on gluten-free cereal flours require quite a high amount of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose to result in food products, such as bakery products, having a soft texture and a high specific volume, as desired by the consumers.
• US patent application publication No. 2008/0038434 discloses a composition for making a gluten-free product, which comprises a gluten- free gas retaining polymer, such as a chewing gum base, a gluten-free setting polymer, such as corn zein, and optionally a hydrocolloid, such as methylcellulose or hydroxypropyl methylcellulose.

This results in a significant savings to the food industry producing such food products, such as bakeries.

All the dry ingredients are weighted into a container and mixed well. The liquid ingredients are added into the dry ingredients under high shear. The dough is kneaded for 3 min and then transferred to a greased loaf pan for proofing at 100F (38°C) for one hour and 15 min. After that, it is baked at 392F (200°C) for 37 min.

• Table 1 illustrate that food products, such as bakery products, and in particular bread, can be produced from the composition of the present invention which have an excellent and surprisingly balanced combination of specific volume, firmness, springiness, and moisture content when a combination of a hydroxypropyl methylcellulose and a carboxymethyl cellulose is incorporated in gluten-free compositions and food products.
• the bakery product of Example 1 comprises substantially the same amount of HPMC as the product of Comparative Example B, but the bakery product of Example 1 has a significantly higher specific volume, is considerably less hard, has a higher springiness and about the same moisture as the bakery product of Comparative Example B. This is highly unexpected, since based on Comparative Example C the skilled artisan would rather expect an unfavorable impact on specific volume, firmness (hardness) and springiness by the incorporation of CMC in addition to the HPMC in the food product.
• Example 1 has essentially the same specific volume and moisture, not a much higher firmness and not a much lower springiness although
